[QUOTE="Cutlerstom, post: 7415481, member: 15572"] She said root exudates build soil carbon faster than above ground biomass by a factor of between 5 and 30times. So if you keep the straw AND plant a cover crop you are going to be best off! We all know its more complicated a decision that just looking at value of straw in the swath, vs value of nutrient exported and even carbon content. Balers and associated logistics running all over the place, in sometimes less than ideal conditions could mean you need remedial work which could undo any previous SFW building! If you can bale and stack yourself, in the dry however.... [/QUOTE]
